“…In the field of nursing, there are very few studies performed on transcultural care in our country. Some of these studies examined the experiences of nursing and midwifery students in patient care, and a single study questioned the problems the nurses, who has worked in a hospital in only one province of Turkey, had in giving care and their knowledge and opinions on this subject…”

The aim of this study was to identify the cultural problems encountered during caregiving by the nurses working in two university hospitals located in western and eastern Turkey. This descriptive, comparative study was conducted between July 2008 and October 2009 with 338 nurses who volunteered to take part in the study. The study data were collected using an individual description questionnaire consisting of 10 questions and another questionnaire consisting of 14 questions to identify the cultural problems encountered by nurses when giving care. The study showed with respect to training received on transcultural nursing that only 59 nurses had this training, but the percentage was higher in the nurses working at the hospital in the west (54.2%) (P > 0.05). It was found that a large number of nurses in the sample group (n = 286) gave care to at least one individual from another culture, but the percentage was significantly higher in the nurses working in the west (56.7%) than in the nurses working in the east (43.3%) (P < 0.05). When the problems experienced by the nurses during caregiving because of cultural characteristics of patients were explored, it was found that they experienced problems mostly in 'communication', and the percentage of those having problems was higher in the nurses working in the west (60.8%) (P > 0.05). The problem experienced in this area was mostly because of the fact that patients 'did not speak Turkish' (63.8%). In conclusion, the nurses gave care to patients from different cultures, and most of them had trouble when giving care to patients from different cultures.

“…People strongly protect their cultural values and also they expect everyone to respect it. 53 In a study that conducted by Heidari et al have been shown that there is much cultural diversity among patients and concluded that all nurses are expected to be more sensitive to the cultural factors such as language, lifestyle, and social status of patients and their families in their education. 52 Considering the cultural diversity backgrounds of patients and the health care providers, cultural sensitivity is an essential factor in improvement of comprehensive PE plans.…”

Objective. The aim of this study was to present a comprehensive review of the literatures describing barriers and facilitators of patient education (PE) perceived by Iranian nurses in order to explain clinical applicability of patient education. Methods. Review of the literature was undertaken using the international databases including PubMed/Medline, Scopus, ScienceDirect, as well as Google Scholar. Also, Persian electronic databases such as Magiran, SID and IranMedex were searched. Electronic databases were searched up from conception to September 2014 using search terms: "patient education", " patients education", "patient teaching", "patient training", "nurse", " nurses", " nursing", " and "Iran". Only studies were included that were related to barriers and facilitators of PE among Iranian nurses. Results. Twenty-seven studies were included. The main influential barriers were categorized into three major areas: 1) Nurserelated factors: nursing shortage 2) Administrationrelated factors: unsupportive organizational culture, and 3) Patient-related factors: low compliance. The most perceived facilitators were recognized as "increasing, selecting and training special nurses for providing PE" and "providing PE courses for nurses and appropriate facilities for PE". Conclusion. Iranian nurses encounter barriers in PE, and the most frequently encountered barriers were related to administration factors. These findings have implications for administrators and managers in health settings. In order to promote PE among nurses, administrators should create a supportive environment and use effective strategies to smooth the progress of PE by nurses in their practice in order to ensure optimal outcomes for patients. "educación del paciente", "educación de pacientes", "enseñanza del paciente", "entrenamiento del paciente", "enfermera", "enfermeras", e "Irán". Solo se analizaron los estudios relacionados con las barreras y facilitadores de EP entre enfermeras iraníes.Resultados. Se incluyeron 27 estudios. Las principales barreras se clasificaron en tres grandes áreas: 1) Factores relacionados con la enfermería: escasez de este recurso humano, 2) Factores relacionados con la administración: inapropiada cultura organizacional y 3) Factores relacionados el paciente: bajo cumplimiento. Los facilitadores más percibidos se reconocieron como "el aumento, la selección y formación especial de las enfermeras para proporcionar EP" y "disponibilidad de cursos de EP para las enfermeras y la disponibilidad de instalaciones adecuadas para brindar el EP". Conclusión. Las enfermeras iraníes encuentran barreras en la EP, siendo las más frecuentes las relacionadas con factores de la gestión de los recursos. Estos resultados tienen implicaciones para los administradores y directivos de las instituciones de salud, pues para promover que las enfermeras en su práctica brinden la EP, se debe crear un ambiente de apoyo y utilizar estrategias eficaces con el fin de garantizar resultados óptimos en los pacientes.Palabras clave: educación del paciente c...
